Not a good season

crowking · 24-11-2010, 08:55 AM

Just wondering what kind of season members had this summer regarding breeding? My Hermans didn't lay any eggs this year,i have two males and six females,but only one of the males was interested in breeding?and that was in the early spring but nothing came of it!Did anybody else have an off season?

My horsfields had an off season last year. This year I sent of a poo sample to be tested and it was positive for worms. Since worming mine they're appetite etc has improved and I've just hatched 3 eggs from them.

Have yours lost any weight or anything recently?

It's not been too bad this season , i've hatched 81 so far with 20/30 plus eggs still cooking.

Not been a bad season, i have had eggs but not incubated many due to moving house three times this year.
I have eggs in the incubator now

Hi Helen.No their weight is okay,i actually worm them early spring and the autumn and they have always been wormfree.They were all very active through the spring and summer and drinking and eating well.Actually they are now in a semi-state of hibernation and ready to go down next week so fingers crossed for next spring
